Nick Eatman Outfoxed! Prey shoots hunter

Good for the Fox!


Outfoxed! Prey shoots hunter

Wounded animal pulls trigger on rifle, hits Belarus man in leg and escapes

MOSCOW — A wounded fox shot its would-be killer in Belarus by pulling the trigger on the hunter's gun as the pair scuffled after the man tried to finish the animal off with the butt of the rifle, media said Thursday.

The unnamed hunter, who had approached the fox after wounding it from a distance, was in hospital with a leg wound, while the fox made its escape, media said, citing prosecutors from the Grodno region.

"The animal fiercely resisted and in the struggle accidentally pulled the trigger with its paw," one prosecutor was quoted as saying.

Fox hunting is popular in the picturesque farming region of northwestern Belarus that borders Poland.

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

First thing that crossed my mind as well.

Prey shoots hunter? Right.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

That was my initial thought. But I also think that I have known people dumb enough, goofy enough, who have enough strange things happen to them, that I could actually believe something so bizarre could happen. Actually I am sure stranger things have happened.

A fox would not be fighting a guy off with his paws. the whole story sounds like bull to me.

Who hits an animal you are hunting with the butt of your rifle?

Wait a minute? I heard the guys name was Bob ...... so I might now believe he was overpowered by a fox.

Paraphrase from the comments:

"Guns don't kill people, foxes [kill people]."

I don't think it's possible a bull did it either.

I wish I could find the audio of this story as it was pretty funny.

Jeff Foxworthy was on the bob and tom radio show one time.

He talked about how people would come up to him and tell him stories that would fit his youmight be a redneck jokes.

He told one of a couple coming up and telling him the story of how one of their relatives got his nipple bit off by a beaver.

You just had to hear how he told the story...pretty funny stuff.
